Fast Stitching

The ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrahThe ants go marching one by one, hurrah, hurrahThe ants go marching one by one,The little one stops to suck his thumbAnd they all go marching down to the groundTo get out of the rain, BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

The ants go marching two by two, hurrah, hurrahThe ants go marching two by two, hurrah, hurrahThe ants go marching two by two,The little one stops to tie his shoeAnd they all go marching down to the groundTo get out of the rain, BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Another 90 minutes spent stitching last night. I worked from the center of the piece to the right and am now working to the left. It didn't really dawn on me until I uploaded the photo for today's blog post exactly what the word was. Yes, there's more to it, but this was quite humorous. Right now I'm only stitching half stitches to get the placement down. In seeing the right side done, I might actually be able to do what I had hoped to do.

About Me

It's taken awhile to realize I'm truly in the middle of the ages. I'm a sometimes grown-up but if you want to walk in the rain without an umbrella, I'm all in. I like cats and reading; writing and cooking; chocolate and playing World of Warcraft; hot tea and hot cocoa; the Iowa Hawkeyes and jazz; counted cross-stitch and Scotland; just sitting on the deck doing nothing but sitting and visiting museums to expand my knowledge; watching the sun come up and standing in a cornfield at night trying to find the constellations. Thanks to rheumatoid arthritis, I'm walking a road I didn't expect to be walking, but I'm trying to make that route fun. You'll find I comment on all sorts of things. Thanks for stopping by.
